Abstract

In the era of globalisation and digital transformation, elementary education faces challenges in preserving local cultural values within technology-based learning environments. Digital learning media often emphasise globalised content, limiting culturally grounded learning experiences. Meanwhile, Higher-Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) have become a core objective of 21st-century education, yet empirically validated media integrating Indonesian cultural diversity with HOTS development remain scarce. This study aims to develop and evaluate KEBAYA (Digital Comics on Indonesian Cultural Diversity), a culture-based digital comic designed to enhance students’ HOTS through interactive narratives. Using a research and development approach with the ADDIE model, the study involved needs analysis, product design aligned with curriculum and cultural values, development using the Canva application, expert validation, and field trials with elementary students. Effectiveness was assessed through HOTS-oriented tests and response questionnaires. The results show that KEBAYA is valid, practical, and effective in improving students’ HOTS, particularly analysis, evaluation, and creative thinking, offering a scalable model for culturally responsive digital learning. This study contributes to culturally responsive digital pedagogy and provides a scalable learning medium for elementary education.

Abstract

Ecopedagogy has gained increasing attention in science education, particularly at the elementary school level, due to the growing need to enhance students' environmental awareness and sustainability literacy. The objective of this study is to analyse research trends and the development of ecopedagogy in elementary science education. The study is based on Scopus-indexed publications from 2020 to 2025. This study employs a bibliometric analysis combined with a systematic literature review approach to map publication trends, journal sources, international collaborations, and country contributions related to ecopedagogy research. The data were analysed using VOSviewer and Biblioshiny to visualise relationships among key concepts. The findings reveal a significant increase in ecopedagogy-related publications, with major contributions from countries such as the United States and China. Furthermore, technology integration and interdisciplinary approaches have emerged as dominant themes in the development of ecopedagogy in science education. This study emphasises the significance of incorporating ecopedagogy as a pedagogical approach within elementary science curricula, particularly through teacher professional development and cross-disciplinary collaboration to promote sustainable education. Future research is recommended to explore empirical implementations and measure their impact on students’ environmental understanding and behavior

Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of a digital library featuring illustrated stories with disaster mitigation content in enhancing reading literacy and environmental care among elementary students. The programme addressed the issue of a lack of individuals possessing adequate reading and writing skills, while concurrently emphasising the significance of imparting environmental education to children from an early age, a particularly salient consideration in regions such as Indonesia, where there is a high incidence of natural disasters. The present study employed a quantitative one-group pretest–posttest design, with 30 fourth-grade students (aged 9–10 years) being selected through purposive sampling. The instruments comprised a reading literacy test and a Likert-scale measure of attitudes towards environmental care. Due to non-normal distribution, data were analysed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The results revealed significant improvements in reading literacy and environmental care attitudes, with all students achieving positive ranks. There were no declines recorded, and positive effects were evident in terms of students’ enthusiasm, active participation, and ability to connect stories with real-life disaster experiences. These results show that combining digital illustrated stories with disaster mitigation content is an effective way to support literacy development, character education and environmental awareness.

Abstract

Numeracy skills and learning motivation are important competencies that need to be developed at elementary school level. However, conventional learning methods have not fully supported the development of these competencies. This study aims to analyse the effect of integrating comic-based microlearning with student worksheets on the numeracy skills and learning motivation of elementary school students. A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design was used, involving a control group of 30 fourth-grade students divided into an experimental group and a control group. Data were collected through numeracy ability tests and learning motivation questionnaires. Analysis of the results showed a significant difference in numeracy ability and learning motivation between the two groups. These findings suggest that integrating Student Worksheets with comic-based microlearning effectively improves elementary school students' numeracy skills and learning motivation in a meaningful, contextual manner. Therefore, this learning model has the potential to serve as an innovative, relevant alternative learning medium for elementary school students, providing empirical contributions to the development of visual and digital learning media for numeracy learning.
